Remember when you got your first computer? Or your first cellphone? That first game console? You could hardly contain yourself. The piece of technology right in front of you. And you look in awe at how advanced technology has come. To be able to unlock worlds, see marvelous things, discover different cultures. All yours. You gently peel off that thin plastic, melting at the sensation. It’s almost personal. The touch between humankind and a sort of artificial God. You press the power button, and it’s turned on. Then the climactic sound. Whether it was the PlayStation or the MacBook, when you first heard it you knew you’d never un-hear it.…

Yes, now! Stop whatever you’re doing, search for Code Camp on your phone, and begin! Pull over and join a Udemy course. Begin your acronym mastery by learning HTML, CSS, and JS. If you don’t do it, someone else will. And you’ll be missing out on the web development fun! Now obviously, if you have no desire to learn, then don’t. But if you have even a small interest in creating a website or eventually making an application that could change the world, I urge you to begin learning. With me, if you’d like. June is the month for Web Development. Every day, I’ll spending a bit of my day learning as…

I’ll be real; I’m not a big fan of social media. Ask my significant other. Ask my friends. Check out how my Facebook and you’ll see why I get messages asking if I’m dead. I’m not obviously but hey, if you’re dead online you might as well cease to exist. And I ceased, hard. I was pretty happy about that; being that guy who said, “Facebook? Yeah, I’m not on it.” It wasn’t until I was at a restaurant with my partner,having lunch with her ex-boss. At that time I was a serial scriptwriter, trying to make it big via word-of-mouth and pub crawls. Never wanted to considerdigital as a…

I have a confession to make. I jumped ahead. What was supposed to be a day that fully planned around Social Media Marketing, ended up being more web development. Coding. An interest I had for so long that I eagerly jumped the gun. As you might not know, Monthly Motive is all about dedicating a month to a new hobby & skill. May is the month of Digital Marketing but June will be all about that delicious CSS. That military-shaven HTML. An eager JavaScript. So yes, I confess, I have digressed from my monthly test. But just for three hours! I swear, dear reader, it was only for three hours.…

Before I explain, let me understand why you, valuable reader, are here. I’m assuming you clicked on this link due to the title (hopefully due to my newly found skills within SEO), and were curious to learn about Google Analytics. I’m also assuming you’re a beginner. I want to thank you for visiting. And I want to direct you to what this website is about, and who I am. Click here please. I’ll wait. We’re back! Now today’s learning session was working on getting my Google Analytics Certification. Now the prep time probably takes around the day, but I split it into two evenings. I watched all the academy videos…

A year ago, I moved to London to pursue a career in scriptwriting; But, as you might assume from the title, things didn’t work out. Even though I was fully committed, I just couldn’t catch a break. I had all these creative ideas but no one wanted any part of it. I thought to myself, “maybe I’m just not that good at writing.” Nope. Bad way of thinking. Instead, I became a writer with digital marketing skills. It wasn’t until I went to a networking event and I met this guy who was the opposite version of myself. He was confident and upfront, and shared his opinion with brutal honesty.…
